Home, Home, Oh how nice to be HOME!

I have to say I am so glad to be home. I meant to be blogging daily, that was my goal...but surgery recovery, the business of having Jason and all the kids home, the Christmas chores(overseeing them-no I am not doing them!), Anyways... all of this has kept me so busy and mostly away from the computer since home from the hospital.So its Wednsday. I have been home now for 5 days. Wow, the time does fly. I was so expecting the worst, the big surgery, the big bad recovery. I am so happy to report that this recovery is just so great compared to my fears!The pain is less than the bad days before my surgery. I am more tired. I tried a couple of days ago to take a walk outside. It was rough, it made me realize there is still a lot of recovering to do. I am still taking the pain pills, but spread out through the day, and not 2 at a time as prescribed.So....Thanks to all who prayed for me.I feel like the prayers were answered.Dr. Wild called yesterday and informed me that the tissue pathology came back and indeed yes, I did have ADENOMYOSIS. They did find something else though. I also had ENDOMETRIOSIS withen my uterus lining. So YEAH, its out, its out, HOORAY! no more awful pain for me!!!!!I am very hopefully that the sources of my pain were all removed and after this surgery recovery period I will be pain free.Please pray that this is the case.The doctors are saying that I may be left with residual chronic pain, but I really believe that they took out the sources and I will be fine, be PAIN FREE. I don't see why there would still be pain. So I have high hopes. I will not look for more pain to be there. I just refuse.I cannot wait to be able to do all of the things I love once again.Things I used to take for granted:-Running with Jack riding his bike through the neighborhood.-Just playing outside with the kids, kiddin around and havin fun outside.-COOKING! --I am going to make my way through some of my new cookbooks that I hope to get for Christmas, or aquire soon!
-BAKING BREAD with Pauline!!!!---Pauline I just got BEARD ON BREAD--james beard's cookbook-- it looks so great!!!!!!-exersizing, doing things to make my body healthy again! I used to love my time, my ME time at Golds...especially the Yoga/Pilates mix class I tookI cannot wait to train for a 5K again. I missed it last time by a week or so- got sick and had to miss it. Its a goal I WILL MAKE one of these days!!!!I guess all of this to say, I AM FEELING HOPEFULL, something I haven't truley felt in a long time. I am loving it!
